The "Here Web" to be the Next Big Thing!
Oct 10, 2005
Joy, co-founder of Sun Microsystems and a driving force behind the creation of Berkeley Unix and Java, among other technologies, said the explosion in devices like cell phones, PDAs and other wireless gadgets connected to the Web is radically changing the technology industry.
He calls that phenomenon the “here” Web, because the Internet is always “here, because you access it through a device you always carry.” Joy, now a partner with the venture capital firm of Kleiner Perkins Caulfield & Byers, made his remarks at Technology Review’s Emerging Technology Conference here Thursday.
